Therapy • Counseling • Coaching

I am a licensed psychotherapist and life coach practicing for over 20 years in Petaluma, California, in Sonoma County.

Are you at a point where you want or need something about your life to change?

Are you in the midst of a major life transition? Would you like some help sorting through the challenges you are dealing with?

Are you hurting because of relationship problems? Do you need to talk with someone who is caring and confidential as you figure a few things out?

Would you like to grow beyond your usual ways of dealing with life, and develop more of your untapped potential?

I am kind, smart, and creative, with an engaging, conversational style of doing therapy. I will get to know you as the unique person you are, and together we will discover how the changes you are seeking can be realized.
